HAWAIIAN MOCHIKO CHICKEN
This mochiko chicken is my daughter's favorite thing in the whole wide world. If you have never eaten mochiko chicken then you don't know what you been missing. This is a staple in many potlucks, tailgating and family gatherings. Mochiko is a Japanese sweet flour that makes a light batter. I make this for my family of 8 once a month. I have to triple the recipe and there is never leftovers.

SAM CHOY'S CAPTAIN CRUNCH CHICKEN
Taken from hawaiinewsnow.com. Time to marinate IS NOT included in prep/cook time. Posted for ZWT. ETA: I have now made this chicken, tho I used boneless skinless breasts, as it is what I had on hand. The Cap'n Crunch cereal makes a tasty breading, and the marinade imparts a nice underlying flavor.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your mochi chicken.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked through but still tender and juicy. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
- Let the chicken cool slightly before you add it to the mochi dough. This will help to prevent the dough from becoming too sticky.
- Be careful when frying the mochi chicken. The oil should be hot enough to fry the chicken quickly, but not so hot that it burns the chicken or the mochi dough.
- Serve the mochi chicken hot with your favorite dipping sauce. Mochi chicken is also delicious served cold or at room temperature.
Conclusion:
Mochi chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it is also a fun and unique dish to serve at parties or gatherings. With its crispy mochi coating and tender, juicy chicken, mochi chicken is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
